The Cicle I of 2021’s Pivô Research residency program, ends with the hybrid IRL and digital event Open Field, happening between May 21 and 29. During this period, resident artists will share the outcomes of their processes and collective discussions held during the 12 weeks of residency. The proposals will be presented both in the Pivô’s space and on its digital platforms, including website, mailing, Instagram, Youtube, Spotify, and on a Cargo platform created especially to host the residents’ proposals.
Cycle I, held between March 8th and June 2nd. Participating artists: Denise Alves-Rodrigues, DUDX, Julia da Mota, Juno B., Laryssa Machada, Noara Quintana, Raphael Escobar and Yná Kabe Rodríguez Olfenza, and curatorial follow up by Cláudio Bueno and João Simões, from the Explode! platform.
The Window-Gallery, located on Pivô’s ground floor, features works by resident artists Noara Quintana and Julia da Mota.
In this online platform, resident artists share some of their projects, references and research in progress. The contents presented respond to the collective discussions unfolding during the residency and informed by the thoughts of the artist and philosopher Denise Ferreira da Silva.
Aiming to spread the range of collaborations, the video program Projeto brings together a series of audiovisual works made by artists invited by the program’s residents. The collective endeavour discusses the means of access, provoking a widening of the very limits of the residency.
